In the livery launch, the squad presented the car’s new livery and the team’s new name – with RAVENOL, the high-performance lubricant, also being involved.

In the run-up to the Canadian International AutoShow in Toronto, RAVENOL’s partner in Formula 1 presented their new livery for the 2019 season.

At the same time, the team name also was changed. With immediate effect, the Silverstone based F1 Team that is owned by the company Racing Point UK Limited is called SportPesa Racing Point F1 Team.

The new title sponsor also makes an impact on the car's appearance. The livery for the 2019 season will mainly be dominated by the color of the last season and a low proportion of blue.

In a ceremonial act, the team’s driver pairing for 2019—Sergio Perez and Lance Stroll—unveiled the team’s challenger for the coming F1 season, thus launching the F1 car for the numerous representatives of the motor-racing media on site and the whole world. The barge boards and the racing overalls of the two drivers are well adorned with the iconic RAVENOL logo.

The involvement at the pinnacle of motor racing that emerged from the partnership with Sahara Force India now smoothly turns into the close cooperation with SportPesa Racing Point F1 Team—a fact that also is very clearly underlined by the new composite logo (official lubricant partner), in the future.

With his third win in the current Moto3™ category that represents a part of the MotoGP platform, young Italian Marco Bezzecchi (19) succeeded in making the battle for the title even closer than it was before. His gap to championship leader Jorge now amounts to just one point!

At the Twin Ring Motegi in Japan, RAVENOL partner Team
Prüstel GP delivered in really great style. The Moto3™ bikes with the powerful KTM 250cc one-cylinder four stroke engines with a maximum of 14,000rpm were perfectly set up by the team and could make maximum use of their full power. The bikes shined at the 3-mile circuit, with Marco Bezzecchi's performance standing out. The young gun that learned his trade in the VR46 Rider Academy, a project initiated by multi-time MotoGP Champion Valentino Rossi, secured his third race win this year.

Marco Bezzecchi thanked his supporters and technical partners saying: “I thank my team for the outstanding job they did once again as well as the VR46 Academy and KTM. And—of course—all the partners, supporters and fans—the backdrop once again proved to be impressive!”

With RAVENOL Motobike 4-T Ester SAE 10W-50, RAVENOL developed a high-resilient engine oil for demanding motorbike engines with wet and oil-lubricated clutches, with Prüstel being well-aware of the reliability of this high-performance oil.

The next race, held this weekend in Australia, will be another thriller, featuring spectacular and close racing. From October 26th to the 28th, the Prüstel GP riders again will fight hard for points in the Michelin Australian Motorcycle Grand Prix.

Mon, 15 Oct 2018 15:11:27 +0000https://www.ravenolamerica.com/news-blog/mick-schumacher-crowned-formula-3-champion/Last weekend was the big season finale of the FIA Formula 3 European Championship at the Hockenheimring.

In this context, the name Schumacher was once again in focus, this time it was Mick Schumacher. The 19-year-old racing driver of Formula 3 had a strong 2018 season. Especially in the second half where he achieved a series of victories in a row—including three in one weekend at the Nürburgring! As a result he travelled with a comfortable lead to the season finale. There he crowned his successful season with his first international success, the FIA Formula 3 European champion.

Between Mick Schumacher and RAVENOL there is an exclusive partnership in the field of lubricants and care products. This is mainly visible through the striking RAVENOL logo found on the helmet of Mick Schumacher.

We congratulate the son of the seven-time F1 World Champion Michael Schumacher on the outstanding performance in 2018 and wish Mick continued success!

Mon, 20 Aug 2018 13:32:13 +0000https://www.ravenolamerica.com/news-blog/upward-trend-for-team-rosberg-in-the-adac-gt-masters/The hard work has finally paid off. Team Rosberg was able to place in the point rankings of the ADAC GT Masters for the first time. In Saturday’s race on the Nürburgring almost two weeks ago, Aaro Vainio and Michele Beretta collected the first four points of the season, coming in eighth place overall. The second duo, Eriksson/Judek, took a step forward as well.

Temperatures far in excess of 86 degrees fahrenheit on that weekend not only got to the audience in the stands. At nearly 113 degrees in the racing vehicle, the drivers too were sweating much more than usual. The 7th and 8th races of the ADAC GT Masters were hosted on the Nürburgring in the Eifel. Keke Rosberg, the team's owner himself, stopped by for a visit.

Aaro Vainio and Michele Beretta earned the team’s first points

Everyone knows that the ADAC GT Masters represents motorsports at a high level. Just how high was demonstrated during qualifying on Saturday morning when 31 vehicles were within one second of each other. Aaro Vainio landed starting position 20 while Jonathan Judek took starting position 32.

The first race at noon was tumultuous and interrupted by a safety car phase shortly after the start. Aaro Vainio got off to a good start and was able to assert himself against his competitors. When he passed the wheel to Michele Beretta, the duo was already in the point rankings. Michele Beretta was ultimately able to take the Rosberg Lamborghini over the finish line in ninth place. A subsequent penalty bumped the two up to eighth place, scoring four points. “The first race went very well,” said Beretta. “We were finally competitive after all the difficult races before, and earning points was very good too.” Teammate Aaro Vainio added: “We certainly had a good race and the points were important. But we still have a lot of work to do.” Jonathan Judek and Jimmy Eriksson’s racing performance was convincingly strong as well. Starting in position 32, they crossed the finish line in 21st place.

Second-best Lamborghini on Sunday

Qualifying in the ADAC GT Masters is known to be difficult. Jimmy Eriksson laid down a fast lap and secured starting position 22. Michele Beretta fought and got the 29th fastest lap time on the course with a length of about 3.629 kilometres.

Asserting themselves in the duels was more difficult for the two Rosberg drivers this time. Time and time again, both Jimmy and Michele found themselves battling for position. Some gains were made during the race. Ultimately it was enough for 20th place (Vainio/Beretta) and 26th place (Eriksson/Judek). “Qualifying went a bit better today,” said Jonathan Judek. But we slipped further because of strong competition.” His teammate Jimmy Eriksson: “We took a step forward during the summer break. But we are not yet where we would really like to be.”

Team leader Arno Zensen: “We are pleased about our first points and want to keep improving our performance”

The first championship points are a relief for the whole team, which has been working hard to achieve this success. “After placing among the top 15 on the Red Bull Ring, we were able to go one better on the Nürburgring,” team leader Arno Zensen rejoiced. “Things keep getting a little bit better each time, and I’m confident that we will position ourselves in the ADAC GT Masters sooner or later. Jimmy, Jonathan, Aaro and Michele performed well this weekend and the team was very well prepared. We are pleased about our first points and want to keep improving our performance.”

The next racing weekend of the ADAC GT Masters begins this Friday. It will be held in Zandvoort, the Netherlands (August 17-19).

RAVENOL has been official lubricant partner of the ‘League of Supercars’. The teams competing in the series may use lubricants such as race- engine and gearbox oils, coolants, race brake fluids as well as other products supplied by RAVENOL.

The German triumphed at the 3.70 mile Silverstone Circuit ahead of Jüri Vips (Motopark) and Jonathan Aberdein (Motopark), the latter scoring his maiden FIA Formula 3 European Championship podium finish. Daniel Ticktum (Motopark), who started the race as the points’ leader, finished eighth and thus maintained his lead in the drivers’ standings.

Having started from second place on the grid, Mick Schumacher moved up into the lead on the first few metres. On the opening lap, he already built a margin of more than one second from his nearest rival Fabio Scherer (Motopark), who had started the race from pole-position. Next up behind the Swiss were Jüri Vips and Jonathan Aberdein.

At this time, Daniel Ticktum, who had taken the championship lead as the winner of the first race at Silverstone a few hours earlier, was outside the top ten, but was looking for his chance in demanding duels.

At the halfway point, the order at the front of the field was unchanged. Meanwhile, Ticktum worked his way past Ralf Aron (PREMA Theodore Racing) and moved up into the top ten. Out in front, Vips took over second place from his teammate Scherer a few moments later as the Swiss retired with a technical issue. Aberdein moved up into the final podium slot and brought it home behind race winner Schumacher and second-placed Vips. Enaam Ahmed (Hitech Bullfrog GP), Marcus Armstrong (PREMA Theodore Racing) and Guanyu Zhou (PREMA Theodore Racing) finished in fourth to sixth place, followed by Sacha Fenestraz (Carlin). Ticktum, Robert Shvartzman (PREMA Theodore Racing) and Aron rounded out the top ten.

Mick Schumacher on his race win: “The story of my race is told quickly: my start was good, I was able to pull a gap on the first lap and then I tried to maintain it. Around the halfway point, my rivals closed up a bit, but then I pushed more and re-established my initial margin. I am really happy with this victory.”

The Public Race Days took place on the 11th and 12th of August 2018 at the Hockenheimring. Hobby drivers of all sorts sped down the quartermile and presented their treasured vehicles at the illustrious German race track.

All hobby racers and tuners were allowed to join and compete in a duel with other drivers on a distance of 0.25 miles. Vehicles, cars, and motorcycles get divided into different performance groups and start the quartermile in their class one against one on separate lanes.

Almost everything that is forbidden on the street is allowed at the brand-open tuning meeting. A street legal vehicle and a driver's license are the only things needed.

Many dragster teams who take part in the NitrOlympX a weekend later, take the opportunity to test and adjust their vehicles so that they are optimally prepared for the big day.

RAVENOL is Official Partner of the public race days and the RAVENOL lubricants are available for all participants to enjoy the PS power properly.

The products ensure optimum performance for vehicles of all kinds to cope with extreme situations like the public race days. No matter if motorcycle, dragster, tuned VW Golf, classic, or BMW M4 GTS, RAVENOL offers the suitable lubricants for any application.

Within the framework of the German Grand Prix at Hockenheim, Martin Huning, RAVENOL’s Motorsport Director, was bestowed with a special honor.

As representative of the Werther based lubricant manufacturer, he was presented by Otmar Szafnauer (Sports Director
Sahara Force India Formula One Team) a certificate documenting the successful cooperation with the Silverstone based Formula One team. The ‘Certificate Celebration’ also was attended by the team’s two drivers, France's Esteban Ocon and Mexico's Sergio Perez. ‘Ravensberger Schmierstoffvertrieb GmbH’ with the well-known brand name RAVENOL cooperates with the British team as official lubricant partner and in addition it develops fluids for the spring system and suspension of the Formula One cars. Huning accepted the appreciation with thanks and commended the performance of the entire RAVENOL team right away – starting with the management through the development department and the production marketing to sales and distribution. “I also thank Team Sahara Force India F1 for the trust they showed us. And we will keep on supporting the team as well as possible – both with the performance of RAVENOL and my motor-racing network,” added Huning.

Sahara Force India Formula One Team) a certificate documenting the successful cooperation with the Silverstone based Formula One team. The ‘Certificate Celebration’ also was attended by the team’s two drivers, France's Esteban Ocon and Mexico's Sergio Perez. ‘Ravensberger Schmierstoffvertrieb GmbH’ with the well-known brand name RAVENOL cooperates with the British team as official lubricant partner and in addition it develops fluids for the spring system and suspension of the Formula One cars. Huning accepted the appreciation with thanks and commended the performance of the entire RAVENOL team right away – starting with the management through the development department and the production marketing to sales and distribution. “I also thank Team Sahara Force India F1 for the trust they showed us. And we will keep on supporting the team as well as possible – both with the performance of RAVENOL and my motor-racing network,” added Huning.
